    Gas boiler? Are these total charges - for electricity and electricity?

    During the heating season, the boiler is connected to central heating. This is a gas charge.

    Thank you for the information.

    Some say that fans in dynamic furnaces make a little noise and it can disturb, for example, in sleep.
    It probably depends on the model. In my fan, you can only hear when you put your ear to the stove, or there is perfect silence around it, and it is barely audible anyway.

    I am thinking of making a suspended ceiling of profiles + GK (lowering from 3.75m to 2.80m). Will then heating costs decrease by this cubature (i.e. 25%) - or something more?

    On the other hand, it would be a bit of a regret to have a pleasant coolness in summer :) Low height - not enough for an anstresol, and too much for an ordinary apartment ;)

    The suspended ceiling in this apartment is completely pointless. The temperature in the cut-off space will be the same as in the rest of the room. We are losing the "available" air, and the rooms will be dark with their length. From the projection of the apartment shown earlier, I estimate that the main heat loss will be through the external wall with windows, some losses to the staircase, because it is probably unheated. Up, down and sideways heat balance will be zero. Consider warm, plush curtains on exterior walls. I know from experience that this saves a bit of heat.

    Well, then I will consider some form of mezzanine in some rooms when some funds arrive.

    To the author. A very sensible approach to the subject. Congratulations.
    I do not know what you did with the tiled stove, but it can always be used as a system heating and the dynamic stove can heat up the room .. Although the tiled stove takes up a lot of space.

    As for the ceiling, you did not consider lowering the ceiling. It is not terribly expensive and the cubic capacity for heating is decreasing. Even one room is something.
    Which energy services to use - check the offer, maybe they have the so-called weekend offer - it will be a bit better.

    You haven't read previous posts - I was considering making a false ceiling. I also wrote that the tiled stove is connected - but I have not yet turned it on. And it probably won't happen.

    It is the dynamic furnaces that serve as system heating. Tiled is unused.

    In Krakow, electric tiled stoves are very common in tenement houses, because the City has long been subsidizing the conversion of stoves (now it is also possible to obtain funding for the purchase of dynamic ones). So many of my friends have such heating - and few are satisfied.

    Why?

    - wrong location of the stove, usually in the corner of the room. It is hot by the stove and very cold by the windows. A great "start" to wet the wall.
    The stoves must be under the windows, i.e. in the coldest place in the room, which ensures proper air circulation.

    - poor temperature distribution throughout the day. Much too warm, in the middle of the night when we sleep, and coldest between 4:00 PM and 11:00 PM, when we are most often at home, because the stove did not warm up between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM.

    - The only control option is - 1,2,3 heaters turned on.

    And, of course, huge bills, despite the unfavorable temperature.

    Therefore - people who installed a dynamic storage stove of the same power instead of a tiled stove felt a significant improvement - both in temperature and in the bills.

    The tiled stove is poorly controllable - therefore it should be used as a system heating.
    The dynamic furnace should heat up when more thermal comfort is needed at a given moment. Thanks to this, it will be much smaller. The existing fan in it should give the heat to the room well. Placing it under the window will actually give the best results, i.e. temperature equalization.

    The temperature should be controlled by a fan in an accumulation furnace.

    It should not be used at all. Because what for?
    Dynamic stoves can handle it without any problems and I would have no profit from starting the tiled stove apart from overheating at night and bigger bills.

    Unless someone is considering saving and buying a smaller stove to use a tiled and accumulative stove - but this is pointless, because a used 3 kw stove costs about PLN 1000-1100, and a 5 kw stove - PLN 1400-1500.

    Having a tiled stove, you can get the PLN 400 about which you write.
    Here comes the tactile value (if the tiled stays) that it is slightly warm - everyone who comes here wants to touch such a stove ... don't they?

    Of course, as you wrote, the difference is small in terms of price. Sometimes the size of the furnace is too big or too heavy etc.

    However, the PLN 400 will settle out quite quickly on the bills. In general, I am opposed to tiled stoves because of their ineffectiveness - which I described a few posts earlier. Cases where, when using tiled stoves, the electric bills are acceptable and at the same time decent temperature prevails are rare.

    Next month report:

    between 9/01/2011 and 12/02/2011 (34 days)
    I used electricity for the amount of:
    PLN 68 - tariff I
    270 PLN - tariff II (including DHW)

    taking the correction for DHW and 34 days, heating for a month, cost about 230 PLN. Of course, January was very warm compared to previous years.

    The heating season 2010-2011 has probably ended. Summary.

    Together,
    From the beginning of October to April 10, 4,000 kWh was used in the second tariff, which gives a sum of approx. PLN 1,350. (+ consumption approx. PLN 50 per month on the first tariff).
    This amount also included water heating with a boiler - which I estimate is about 100 kWh, or PLN 33 per month, compared to the summer months.

    Thus, the costs of heating itself during the heating season amounted to approx. PLN 1,200.

    So I will not consider building a suspended ceiling, as its construction has no chance of paying off in the near future.

    And I would recommend infrapanels here. So infrared heating panels. I have it myself and I am very pleased. They are not very cheap, but the running costs are fairly satisfactory. I have low electricity bills. The heat is pleasantly moist and not as dry as in the case of other heating systems. On the website www.infrapanele.pl you have everything described what and how. I also have and recommend it

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around options for heating a 60 m² tenement apartment with a 12 kW power allocation and no gas supply. Various heating solutions are considered, including electric boilers, accumulation stoves, infrared panels, and air conditioning. Users suggest that electric boilers may be too costly and complex due to installation and radiator costs. Accumulation stoves are favored for their lower initial investment and efficiency, with recommendations for dynamic discharge models. Infrared heating is also mentioned as a viable option for high ceilings. The importance of proper installation and power management is emphasized, with users sharing personal experiences regarding costs and effectiveness of different heating methods. The conversation highlights the need for careful consideration of energy tariffs and the potential for significant electricity bills.
